Cosplay of the Tri-Cities

Definitely love this Regina from Dino Crisis! Was never really a survival horror game in my eyes because dinosaurs were not really scary, but the atmosphere was really well done back then. Definitely needs a remake!

This is gonna be sort of a trauma dump and something else.

I love cosplaying and the people I have met through it have been for the most part amazing, but I finally ran into the ones that gatekeep it and make others feel like crap for cosplaying if they dont fit a certain mold or mindset maybe? My whole life Ive fought to be included and to be apart of a group yet I get shut out, forgotten, or just downright shunned. The cosplay scene has been no different apparently now.

I give up.. I truly love this community and I made this page to show cosplays, but now.. I feel like whats the point? I guess I care way too much about others and try to fit in so badly it hurts. Oh well...

Not sure if this page will stay up or if maybe I just take a night to reflect and come back at it tomorrow.

I guess the pic below is either a lie or maybe its just me...

Hey all,

Mike here!

ETSU-Con is this weekend and I am excited to be hanging out there as Trevor Belmont! If you see me, stop me and say hey and take some pictures. This is the sword I am working on for him... and hopefully I can figure out a couple of things before this weekend. I also need to finish fixing my Morningstar Whip as it broke on me too! UGH!

Hope to see some of you this weekend!

RIP Ashley aka Squidkid1111. People can be so cruel sometimes. She was an amazing person and a cosplayer that just wanted to enjoy the hobby like anyone else. Cyberbullying is a crime everyone, so before you want to make comments about someone remember what the consequences of those actions are. Bullying here will NOT be tolerated!!

We just lost a beautiful soul in our community because of relentless cruelty. Every hateful comment adds weight, and you never know which one will be the one that pushes someone past their breaking point. What happened to Squidkid1111 should never happen to anyone. No one deserves to be torn down for expressing joy, creativity, or passion over the color of their skin.

If you don’t have anything kind to say, scroll away.
If someone’s cosplay isn’t to your taste, scroll away.
If someone reimagines a character differently than you would, scroll away.

Cosplay is supposed to be fun. We dress as fictional characters. They are not real.
But the people wearing the costumes are — and their feelings are real, their lives are real, and the impact of our words is real.

Be kinder. Be better. Support one another.
Our community should be a place of creativity and belonging, not cruelty.

Rest in peace, Ashley. You deserved so much better. 🖤

Please go find a creator and let them know how much you enjoy their work. If you see mean comments — be the person that uplifts. Be overly kind. Your voice could save someone’s life.
